"Great Speaker"

Feature:
EQ on the back is a plus over their previous model the EON 15P.

Quality:
Very high quality and very durable. I dropped one on a metal floor that essentially had little spikes. The enclosure looks like it has chicken pox but it works like new.

Value:
Hard to beat.

Desirability:
Black shiny plastic with big sound :)

Sound:
I have been using these as mains for the last 6 years and have been paid many many compliments on how good my system sounds. I do reinforce it with a Yorkville sub but that's due to the type of music I play. They have a very clean not tinny sound.

Ease of Use:
Plug and play baby, can't be any simpler.

Support:
I've never had to send them in for service which says a lot about the quality.

Overall:
I've had them for 6 years and when the time comes I'll buy another two.

"Best in every category. Sound, quality, convience and versatility"

Feature:
These have the most and most useful features I have seen on any powered speakers. 3 inputs all balanced, 3 channel mixer, loop function, mic or line level, high and low EQ. You can fly them, put them on poles, tip them back as floor monitors. One of these things is truely a PA in a box and can take the place of almost any other speaker you might use.

Quality:
I use a lot of SR series JBL stuff and these are the same level as the SR and MPro stuff. I've had a pair for over five years and have used them exclusively for FOH for rock bands in small to medium sized clubs. Had my first problem last night. They haven't been abused but they have been run plenty hard for long periods. Nothing works flawlessly forever under those conditions. These are pro grade.

Value:
Well worth it. This is a "best bang for the buck" item. You simply can not buy better performance or more features for the price.

Desirability:
Some think they look cool. I think they look fine from the front. they are kind of ugly used as wedges. I use all eon10G2's for monitors.

Sound:
I just love JBL sound. I work with all JBL speakers and these are on par with the SR series stuff. You can't beat them without going to a rack of gear to run a high end passive speaker.

Ease of Use:
Dead simple. Everything is clearly labeled and make perfect sense. To those that say that they are kind of heavy, I'd like to see you pick up and carry a 300watt amp, a 100watt amp, a 2-way crossover, a 2-channel limiter and a speaker cabinet with a 15" and a horn, in one hand. These are not any heavier than most passive wedges I have used. The best part is that I can put together a killer system with these that easily fits in a minivan.

Support:
JBL deals with pros and pros don't have time to screw around. They honored the warantee on an MPro sub that had obviously been used and mess with inside by someone at the store before I bought it.

Overall:
These have gone a lot further than I even thought they would when I bought them. I didn't realize I would have such a killer system that would fit in a minivan. I'll have to make a big jump up in professional level to need something better.

"Kick ass speaker system"

Feature:
I use it as a keyboard monitor on a stand. It sounds better than the mains!

Quality:
I once dropped it from the top of the speaker stand. It got a little scuffed, but continues to work like the day I bought it.

Desirability:
I really want another so I can run my keyboard monitors in stereo.

Sound:
Kick Ass speaker!!!!!

Support:
JBL really supports their products, though I have never had to have any repairs.

Overall:
Did I say Kick ASS!!!
